Michael A Knutson was born in San Francisco, California, raised in Port Townsend, Washington and has lived and shown in New York and Los Angeles. His large paintings often return to his childhood memories.

“These paintings sustain the metaphor of sky and creature to the human spirit. Michael’s journey is that of a young artist in search of the indefinable.  The artifacts of the search are here, on these canvases.  The sense of longing and belonging is palpable and the heart is everywhere evident.  It is brave and honest work.”
